They are both OK. I wouldn't say either one was any better than the other. I would be looking at others who use a Franklin motor, like my Betta Flo BF-1010-122 which is all stainless.
The Grundfos uses their own motor and the Goulds uses the new motor made by ITT and Pentair. It has only been on the market for a little over a year. I won't use them. I would be curious what pricing you are looking at.
I have the Betta Flo for $467.04 and the Grundfos for $626.67. This makes me think your looking at paying close to $650 or more for both the Goulds and the Grundfos. Goulds will have plastic impellers and their new Centri-pro motor.
Grundfos will have stainless steel impellers and their own Grundfos motor. The Stainless Steel impellers are very thin and not any longer lasting than plastic.
The Centri-pro motor is very new and we just don't know anything about it yet. The Grundfos motor has had several changes but, has been around long enough to know that it is fairly reliable. You can probably find a Betta-flow, Hydor-flo or some other brand of pump that is just as good, and will cost much less than the two you are looking at. Hydro-flo uses a Sumoto motor which I have been testing and so far think they will be fine. The Betta-flo will have a Franklin motor, which may not be any better but, has been the standard in the pump industry for many years.
There are a lot of pumps available that are just as good as those you are looking at. The ones you are looking at are more expensive because those companies have to maintain their corporate jets and race cars.
I recently replaced my old bladder-less galvanized well pressure tank with a new one. I couldn't add air to it any more.
No air would go though the fitting, and it looked so rusty that I wasn't about to even try to replace the fitting. One day I came in from outside and the pump was running continuously. After letting the pump cool down, I bled the tank and pumped some water back in, just to verify the pump was still working. It seemed to be OK, so I decided it was time to replace the tank. I'm almost certain the gauge on the old tank ranged from about 35 (or 40) to 55 for the cut in and off pressures.

But when I returned the pump to service after installing the new tank, it wouldn't generate more than 40 psi. 
I don't know if my old gauge was bad and reading high, or the pump seals were damaged the day I found it running continuously. I can't find any information about my old pump.
It's an old Tait pump and all I have is the model number, which I can't look up. I've read that some of the older pumps ran with 20/40 switches, so I'm wondering if maybe my pump is fine and my old gauge was bad. I'm thinking about just putting it in service and adjusting the cutoff to 40 psi and just seeing how it goes, if the water pressure in the house seems normal, I'm done. If it seems like a trickle, then maybe I need a new pump too. If I have to replace the pump, I'd like to match the old one in size.
Does anyone know anything about the Tait model 5CN, B.M. (build model? [I looked on the other side of the motor housing later and found a tag that indicates it is 1/2 HP] If not, any general recommendations? Mostly it's just me and my wife. We use about 400 gal per week.
We have two additional house guests for about another month and are using about twice the volume. But this is a backup system, so I don't want to oversize the pump. I also need to power it with a modest generator (4000 W) during power outages.
I'm thinking about a Wayne 1/2 or 3/4 HP pump. Any suggestions would be appreciated. My pressure tank has a 36 gal capacity. Tait was a great pump. If you go with a Wayne, you will be getting about 10% of the quality of the Tait. Sure Wayne's are cheap, but that word works for price and quality. I sold Taits up until about 86 or so when all the buy outs started.
The place I bought them from at that time loaded me up with pumps on a special deal then left town. That was the end of Tait as I knew it. The drop in pressure could be the gauge, it could be the water level in the well or maybe some junk in the impeller.
If it won't shut off anymore, something changed. If you want a quality pump at a decent price look here. Tait was a great pump. If you go with a Wayne, you will be getting about 10% of the quality of the Tait. Sure Wayne's are cheap, but that word works for price and quality.
